I found this gem of a package in a supermarket in Chennai (India) when I was there for Type Camp a few weeks ago. Our main mission was to find products that felt characteristically Indian, but to no one’s surprise I was drawn to this bit of ephemera that looks like an old bit of British illustration that was awkwardly reworked to give it some “ethnic” details, such as that hat that looks like it was added in a hurry by some intern in the art department at some point. And check out that hand holding the spoon! But don’t look to closely for too long. The eyes will haunt you.
I see a heart in the face.
